74LV04AT14-13

Logic gates and inverters are electronic devices used to process and control electrical signals. They are used in a wide variety of applications, including computing, communications and industrial systems. Among these, the 74LV04AT14-13 is a specially designed device that is used to perform a variety of Boolean functions.

The 74LV04AT14-13 is a Hex Schmitt Trigger Inverter designed to improve digital signal processing. It is designed to be an inverting Schmitt trigger device, with a total logic delay of 400 ns, which is significantly lower than the typical values of CMOS and TTL devices. It has low power consumption, a wide operating supply voltage and can operate over a temperature range up to 125°C.

It utilizes CMOS technology with a symmetrical Schmitt trigger which reduces the propagation delay and makes it ideal for high-speed applications. The 74LV04AT14-13 can be used in low voltage, low power, and low signal swing applications and it is also compatible with a wide range of logic families, making it suitable for many different applications. It is also ideal for applications that require high noise immunity and high signal integrity.

The device includes six independent inverting gates with built-in Schmitt triggers on each input. The Schmitt triggers significantly improve noise immunity, with each input having a 500 mV minimum signal immunity when switching thresholds. This ensures the reliable operation of the device, even in noisy environments. It also features an internal power-on reset, allowing it to be used in high-reliability applications.

The 74LV04AT14-13 is used in a range of circuit applications, most notably in digital systems. It is used to perform logic inversion and is most commonly used in oscillator circuits. It can also be used to convert multiple input logic levels into a single output level and is also used to implement low frequency time-delay circuits.

The working principle of the device involves inverting incoming logic signals. The input signals are compared against an internal threshold voltage level, and the output is logically inverted to indicate which of the two inputs is higher. This process is then repeated for each input, with the output being generated based on the comparisons. The internal threshold voltage of the device is determined by the supply voltage.

In summary, the 74LV04AT14-13 is a Hex Schmitt Trigger Inverter used for digital signal processing. It is an inverting Schmitt trigger device, with a low-power consumption and a wide operating voltage range. The device features six independent inverting gates with built-in Schmitt triggers and can be used in a range of circuit applications, most notably in oscillator circuits. The device works by comparing input signals against an internal threshold voltage level, and the output is logically inverted to indicate which of the two inputs is higher.
